Ongoing sequel to Ikigami.

A national prosperity law has been passed in a dystopian nation resulting in citizens between the ages of 18-24 being randomly selected to die for the good of the nation. These citizens are given 24-hour notification of their impending death. The ostensible reason for this system being to help demonstrate the value of life.

Where's my positive effect of the NWA on the morals of the citizens now?

>>268813245
No evidence the fuck, she posted a point table for harassing and perpretrating crimes against somebody. Plus the phrase which the teacher knew was scribbled on the book is enough circumstantial evidence to get the law involved. Pass that to any press with her name and she'll die a social death too.
>>
>>268817325
>Where's my positive effect of the NWA on the morals of the citizens now?
It would have been much worse without the NWA, dear citizen.
For a better explanation on why, please stay put and ask our officers when they arrive.
>>
>>268813425
We could use more of them. That said, dear god, this is turning into something out of Jigoku Shojou/Hell Girl.

Has reading comprehension fallen this far? It literally says she was in middle school during the bullying and probably elsewhere too.

>Has reading comprehension fallen this far?
Back to you. I'm explicitly quoting this page >>268812086 where they're in highschool.
>>
>>268825018
Junior high school ( >>268812053
) is middle school in Japan my man, even clearer if you can into nip since it says 中学校 right there. The only high school the ikigami'd entered is the nursing one.
>>
>>268825356
My point is that they look 20-25

It makes people value their lives by knowing it might end. In a safe, peaceful society, it's the only way for citizens to experience that so they don't become decadent and self-destructing. The feeling of loss is the only thing that makes us people. That's the glory of the National Welfare Act.

You have to pay an Ikigami processing fee upon delivery. Yeah that’s right, you should have to pay for the privilege of being told you’re dead in 24 hours. This isn’t a charity!

>a woman was able to come to terms with her bullying and move on
>she was learned forgiveness and kindness and helped her former bully
>the bully became a better person and educated herself on the injustices of the world
>all thanks to the GLORIOUS National Welfare Act
Miscreants will still find a way to say these are bad things.

What if one of the people who get it is the stepson of a foreign politician? Like what if someone from Japan adopted a child and this one turns out have the it?

Would that be considered an act of war? They would be murdering a foreigner from an allied country?

But mr. bald headed glowie, couldn't this have been achieved by training and employing capable school faculty workers who know how to handle bullying cases and don't budge at the slightest hint of intimidation?
It would have been much faster, less expensive and best of all no one would have had to die.

I know it’s against the concept of the series but I’d really like to see more depressing kinds of ends and stories where someone just completely loses it or they get depressed and spend their remaining time getting wasted and then die a pathetic death alone in an alley between bouts of puking their guts our instead of the usual “they expired surrounded by their family at home”.

This is not for you.

The hidden message: Thanks to the NWA, one in a thousand die a meaningful death, usually surrounded by their loved ones. Isn't that great?!

May this thread bolster the board's welfare.

Outsiders don't understand the glory of the NWA. Only those who live it know the truth.

>>268897546
Anon, too soon... again.

>>268897546
What are you gonna if this thread hits bump limit?

A bump for the NWA.
>>
>>268877551
It looks much better that way.

>>268897546
This thread has served in the war against The Federation so it doesn't need to die anymore.

>>268896400
Are you still alive, old man?
